Texas ranchers tend to be very possessive when it comes to their ranches. Which makes a lot of sense. What makes a little sense is the violent reaction that trespassing triggers in them. Signs like this one can be found in various locations around Texas, warning people not to wander off into someone else’s land.
Well, that gets the message across loud and clear, though to do all three seems excessive. Just stay away, as you’re not likely to get out alive, and if you do, you’ll still end up in court. It seems Texans have no mercy when it comes to trespassers.
No Checks
Texans like to do things the old-fashioned way. That includes paying for things. It appears that some businesses in Texas still accept payment in livestock. We were wondering if anyone ever walked in and asked if they had changed for a camel.
As old-fashioned as Texans can be, many of them don't accept payment in checks anymore. Checks are basically useless pieces of paper in Texas. But when you think about it, there are so many convenient wire transfer apps out there that would sooner or later turn checkbooks into ancient history.
Suicidal Deer
Other than geckos and other reptilians, Texas fauna also includes deer. Actually, there are so many of them that they often end up on the road and spook innocent car drivers. This is why you can find signs such as this one on Texas roadsides.
We have never seen a sign like this anywhere else before. We are guessing the deer might not be aware of oncoming vehicles and step out into the road without looking or even knowing to look. So, watch out and drive slowly for the next mile. Or generally speaking.
Karate Psychic
They say it’s important to diversify your business, and the people of Texas know that well. Otherwise, we have no way of explaining this picture. This person has taken the diverse business advice very seriously and decided to offer two services that you might not combine together naturally. But then again, you can never know if psychic karate could be for you.
For all we know, fighting people with your mind might be a lot less energy-consuming than a common martial art. Only in Texas, where the frontier of innovation knows no bounds, could you find a place offering something like this; a harmonious blend of mind-reading and high kicks. It's like a mystical dance of the senses, where you anticipate your opponent's moves before they even know they're making them.
The Four Seasons
As kids, we are taught that a year has four seasons. Texas kids, however, might learn that in school but experience something completely different. Texas is in the South and so close to the equator, so the temperatures are high all the time. Texas essentially has four slightly different versions of summer and that's about it.
In some areas, it is hot and humid, while others have more arid conditions, but one thing is for sure, summertime in Texas is hot hot hot. Texas residents might be able to bake cookies in their cars by leaving the uncooked dough in the vehicle and waiting for the scorching sun to do its thing.
